so if there are obama supporters in the districts of the republican congressmen that president obama needs to convince in order to come to a balanced solution to the fiscal cliff, i think igniting and motivating and mobilizing his millions of supporters across the country is a pretty smart way of doing it. >> will it work, ron? >> well, you know, it's always a good idea for the president -- any president to be talking to voters. the question here is who should he be talking to. right now we don't have a deal yet in washington. we just were talking about the real very broad parameters of a framework. so the question is what would he say beyond what he has said before? i think more time needs to be spent in washington talking to lawmakers, especially members of his own -- especially democrats. i mean, they're not exactly signing up for entitlement reform right now. there are plenty of news articles all over the place talking about the fact that they're not -- they are not signed up for social security and medicare reform just yet, and that's going to be a significant part of any deal.
